The Peoples Democratic Party on Monday required an examination concerning charge of misrepresentation, taking and plundering of assets in the Niger Delta Development Commission under the All Progressives Congress-drove organization.

The PDP National Publicity Secretary, Mr Kola Ologbondiyan, in an announcement, additionally asserted that the NDDC, under the present administration, had become an Automated Teller Machine for supposed degenerate APC pioneers.

As indicated by him, the open space is inundated with claims of plundering of billions of naira from the NDDC implied for the improvement of the Niger Delta through obscure agreements, redirection and obscure obtainment bargains by authorities in a way likened to the plundering in the National Health Insurance Scheme.

The PDP representative approached the National Assembly to begin an examination concerning the books of the NDDC, recoup the supposed plundered assets and channel the cash to ventures implied for the prosperity of Nigerians.

Ologbondiyan stated, "This is notwithstanding feeble refusals on the supposed endeavor by specific interests to deceitfully pipe N5.5bn out of the NDDC coffers under the pretense of acquiring packs for the COVID-19 pandemic, an advancement which likewise trails reports that the NDDC had just spent over N1.045bn purportedly for supply of units and palliatives to Nigerians in nine states.

"The PDP anyway dismisses the endeavor by the NDDC the executives to occupy consideration from the issues in question, especially by implying unremarkable spoilers while simultaneously settling on interior examination of the N5.5bn COVID-19 agreement claim, rather than alluding the issue to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.

"Such retreat to inward examination just focuses to a frantic endeavor at camouflage, which thus approves claims of complicity at significant level. It is all the more dampening to take note of that such humongous plundering, controls and camouflages are going on in a commission like the NDDC under an organization that professes to have zero resistance for debasement.

"In addition, the PDP welcomes Nigerians to see that high ranking representatives selected by President Buhari to regulate the NDDC incorporate people with debasement allegations from their past open assignments, including as state governors.

"Our gathering thusly encourages the National Assembly to start an examination concerning the books of the NDDC under the current administration, recuperate the plundered assets and channel the cash to the undertakings implied for the prosperity of Nigerians as contained in the financial limit of the commission."
